Mh I like that! LOL

My ideal car has the philosophy of the TVR. I want it small, not to large because it must be usable on mountain roads (in an Enzo I would be scared because it's too big). a light engine (straight six or a lightweight V8) with 550bhp front-middle mounted. body and chassis made of carbon fibre. 6 speed manual, RWD without ASR but switchable ABS. No servo-assisted brakes but powersteering (good like the Noble unit).

Speaking of hypercar, the middle mounted V12 is a must have. Better if, like the F50, is a mod F1 engine.700bhp, chassis and body made of Carbon Fibre, standard brakes ( I'm not so sure of those carbon ceramic brakes...). Aerodynamic must be Enzo like (without wings and high down force).

The looks of the F355 Spider, the engine of the F355 Spider, the sound of the F355 Spider, the beauty of the F355 Spider... do you need more?
LOL...I couldn't have said it better...although instead of Spider...I'd have the GTS

An original Lamborghini Diablo SE30 Jota with nothing else.
Or the 25th Anniversiario Lamborghini Countach.
Or a Ferrari 360 Spider.
Or...

Sounds like you're talking about a de-winged version of the F50 GT1...nice car hehe. 4.7L V12...720bhp based on an F1 engine, 6speed sequential manual...not sure if it has carbon brakes or not though.

Hum... let me think... something like a Lotus Exige... but with carbon fiber all round.. and a inline 6 cilinder BMW M3 CSL engine...

And I think it's everything! And it would surely kick ass!!!

Yes that's true! LOL I wasn't thinking about the F50 GT1 but I described a similar car...it's true, Ferrari is in my heart and even if I don't want to think at it, she's always in my mind

It will look like an Aston, will have the strenght of a BMW Motorsport, be comfortable as a bentley and the handling of the challenge stradale and sound like it.

Sounds exactly like my dream car, except I'd take about 350BHP and just make the car lighter.

stop thinking small...woogies

how about...

2004 2005 ferrari f1 with a full time pit crew and a tanker truck to go with it.

licensed and raised a hair so that i could clear dust in the road.

i just want to be able to roll up to the police station, rev twice, "signal", and let them chase me till i get bored.

can't get any better, period.
